Cable adapter set ShiverPeaks 51200-M-SET2 — 3.5mm stereo metal connectors

The ShiverPeaks 51200-M-SET2 cable adapter set contains 3.5 mm stereo metal connectors intended for creating, repairing, or upgrading audio cables. Each connector provides a standard TRS stereo termination in a durable metal housing with plated contacts, suitable for headphones, portable audio players, computer sound outputs, and other line-level applications. The set is designed for users who need reliable mechanical strength and consistent electrical contact when assembling or replacing 3.5 mm audio terminations.

Advantages

Metal housings deliver increased mechanical durability compared with plastic alternatives and help protect solder joints from strain. Plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and ensure stable signal transmission for stereo left/right channels and ground. The standard TRS design ensures wide compatibility with common consumer and prosumer audio devices. The connectors are compact and suitable for fitting into confined cable enclosures or custom housings.

Suitable for

• Repairing or rebuilding headphone cables
• DIY audio cable assemblies for portable players or smartphones
• Replacing worn or damaged 3.5 mm terminations on computer or audio equipment
• Custom adapter or extension cable projects for line-level stereo signals

Key specifications

• Connector type: 3.5 mm TRS (stereo)
• Housing material: metal
• Contact plating: corrosion-resistant plating
• Number of pieces: set of two connectors
• Application: headphone, portable audio, line-level stereo connections

How to use

Strip the cable jacket and separate conductor, shield, and any drain wire as required. Tin the conductor ends and the connector contacts before soldering to obtain reliable joints. Insert the soldered conductors into the connector assembly, verify correct left/right/ground wiring, then secure the housing and any strain relief components. For detachable housings, reassemble the shell carefully to avoid trapping wires; test continuity and channel balance after assembly.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate soldering tools and safety precautions when working with small metal connectors. Choose cable with compatible conductor gauge and insulation to ensure a secure mechanical and electrical connection. For repeated insertions or high-stress applications, confirm the connector housing and strain relief are fully engaged to reduce wear on solder joints and contacts.
